Farm Adventures...Sunny....50's

Mocha and Java were taken out to graze with Mom the other day.

At  least that's what I planned. Tired from planting the garden I made a
cup of Lemon Lift Tea and sat to watch.

One cup and a few pics later I decided they were going to stay and graze right alongside their Mom.
As it turned out, 10 minutes of grass was all they wanted, then
caprine curiosity took over.

After I returned to planting this is what they did.

Left Mom and went about 150 feet away, out of sight, and
started eating the strawberry plants. I got there in time and returned
them  to home base.

I left and they left, this time to jump on the green house door and remove the screening.

Probably because they're bucks and no doubt because they had a traveling companion, Mom's stationery location did not act as a tether.

So as usual I lost and had to return them to the barn.

Then a couple of days later I got smarter.

I tied their mother in tall grass inside a fenced area and put them in there loose.

When I made a check, I found the Doe hollering and out of sight of her kids. They had climbed through this gate and were taking turns having a Tete A Tete with their father.......

This will work, staying right with mom.

Contemplating - is this a barrier or an opportunity?
 Oh I remember, Grandmother A. Wyse
says always  "Practice your climbing skills"

For some reason we got put back in our pen shortly after this picture!
